$35,000 to be a mod?!?!
Yes folks, you heard it here first...this is what Skinner offered me to be a mod.

In my dream. :D

There were no benefits (which I found rather crappy for a progressive site, but oh well ;)), and I was not allowed to moderate, delete, or otherwise interact with posts from shortbus, Whitacre_D_WI, and (heavens knows why) cally. :wtf:

Still tho, $35,000 to sit on my bum and do what I do all day anyway? Can't beat that with a KitchenAid, I tells ya...;)

1. Skinner once offered me $3,000
But due to the ban on sex threads I can't reveal the nature of the transaction.

That last DU fund drive wasn't only for expenses covering new software.

2. Skinner offered me $40,000 to be a rocker.

*would* make that joke...I thought about trying to work in a Quadrophenia quote but decided I was too lazy to think that much. :P

edit: Oh damn, does this mean I'm fired? x(

5. Damnit! If I knew he was willing to put out that much I would have
held out for more money! And endless supply of DU bumperstickers seemed like a good idea at the time :shrug:

9. Depending on which forum
I was to be working in, I think I might've tried to negotiate for more. :scared:

I hope this isn't going to cause a slave revolt or anything...;)

I AM SPARTACUS!!

:D
